Clocks forward tonight

[valleyman]

Dont't forget it is Clocks forward tonight.

So if you are out after 2am tomorrow morning you will need to go 1 hour forward.

Good post (Last night to say no on the Synscan hand set)

My life is going to get boring now in the evenings!!

My shift at work will be an hour later to start and finish (finishing at 01.30 next week) as I have to match a Bangalore team's start time, and they don't have daylight time.

I'd love to see DST scrapped completely, and changes made to the start times of work shifts and school start times to suit the sun instead of changing the clock to suit...

It'll be so much harder to get up the hour earlier towards the start of next week now!

I'm a little shocked that I genuinely didn't know the clocks went forward this weekend until I read this post. I wonder how long I'd have taken to notice?

I'd certainly not be that worried if we dropped BST (or GMT, whichever makes most sense). My watches have stayed on BST for the last few years anyhow

Where I live in Limerick, Ireland we should really be GMT-1 all year round - it's more than 7.5 degrees west. Local solar noon will be ~13.40 tomorrow. It's a bit silly!

It is daft isn't it. I'd much prefer they just left us on GMT/UTC all the time.

If they get their way we're going to be moving a couple of hours forward in time to be the same as europe in a year or two, and stay there

Whatever happened to the proper straight time lines?

I'll still be saying "no" to the synscan and just use gmt all year around, do it with the amateur radio log book too.

Yea, my radio amateur log stays in GMT all year round also:)
